FINALLY GOT AROUND TO COMMENTING ON THIS!!!
1) Even though i've already seen the four optics I STILL THINK SHE LOOKS AMAZING WITH THEM AND THAT SHADE OF PURPLE IS JUST FREAKING PERFECT FOR HER!!!!
2) OOOOOOOOOOOooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooo the design looks nice!!! The darker tones are much more fitting for her!
3) I know this was suppose to emphasize on the freckles, but the "Kiss Me I'm Irish" shirt makes me think of a scene where Quill see the shirt and actually tries to kiss her and Tony just swoops in like "NOPE!" and tries to get Star to change her shirt. XD
4) EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! look at this adorable goody-two-shoes nerd!!! Gah! Now wonder why he won the spark of probably the most self isolated femme there is. XD
The colors look nice, and i actually don't mind the helm shape, but can't wait to see a full reference sheet for him!! So glad that i was able to help!!!!
5) Meh... I knew drinking and being the Cybertronian equivalent of an alcoholic was a thing, but smoking? What would they even smoke is what i guess i'm asking? I can see the human version of Shinigami smoking, and even though yes, i do believe it's something she would do as a whole given her personality... but now i thinking that maybe Sharp Edge would have encouraged her to stop... at least while they were together....
6) Welcome to the hopeless romantic club Larimar! XD
7) EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe YOU DID SO WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!
8) WOOOOOO!!! Been looking forward to these!!!
So Blaststrike is pretty much the flashy saboteur for Megatron's Mafia? I can see that. Like if they needed something flashy for a distraction or something, he'd be their go-to... LOVE IT
Shinigami looks nice.
Echo, i swear, i'm gonna have fun writing her in this the most. From the "Stole the jacket" to the "Don't test her patience" notes. And instead of going with the Angel of Death, she's the Angel of Sass. XD
Oh man, i think the locket is a nice touch for her Aurora. She could have a picture of baby Echo and her husband, and whenever she thinks about what happened to her daughter she just grabs onto it as a sense of comfort? Hmm... And she's probably be the one they would send to discreetly information... like she could be the info getter of the mafia....
THIS WAS AWESOME TO SEE!!!

1.) Yeah, the four optics fit her so well and they add a little something unique to her design. I have to thank you for suggesting that shade of purple, fits much better than the magenta she originally had.
2.) Thank you! I figured that it was time for Echo to get a glow-up and because of this I will be altering her mother's design as well, but only a little bit. Yes, that darker tones fit he much better than the brighter ones she originally had.
3.) Oh my goodness, YES- that's exactly what I thought of when I added those words to her shirt. I can just imagine Tony telling her to change her shirt and Star is like "Why? It's just a shirt." XD
4.) He really is an adorable goody-two-shoes nerd! It took him sometime, but with his dashing looks and the fact that he's truly a good person, he had most definitely won Shinigami's spark (even if she hadn't realized it herself). XD
Yes, they really do- it took me awhile to get the right shades of green but it worked out in the end. I did take your suggestion on the helm shape, though with what else I added I had to alter it, but it doesn't look bad. Hopefully I'll be able to get it out soon. I was very grateful for the ideas you gave me, they really helped a lot.
5.) Yeah, that's one of the main reasons why I had scrapped the idea of Shinigami smoking. I kinda want to keep the idea, but if I can't find anything that's close to a cybertronian equivalent or can't make up anything that would make sense then I'll just scrap the idea again- at least for her original Cybertronian self. I do agree that the human version of Shinigami would definitely smoke and I can definitely see her doing it in the Mafia AU. Sharp Edge would try to get her to stop, but she'd probably slow down rather than completely stop...
EDIT: Okay so I was seeing if there was a cybertronian equivalent and there is. There's this thing called a cy-gar/cy-garette (tfwiki.net/wiki/Cy-gar ) and from what I’ve read- it’s a Cybertronian equivalent to a cigarette or a cigar.
6.)
7.) I 'm so happy you like it! I'm really looking forward to drawing more and I think I'll try to draw some of your and Wolfheart's characters in a fully colored and shaded picture. I'm feeling more confident about it so, we'll be seeing that sooner or later.
8.)
Yep, that's what I had in mind for him given his expertise when it comes to explosives. Oooh, agreed- he probably would be their go-to whenever there's a need for a need for something flashy for a distraction or something.
Thanks. Though I'm not satisfied with this design for Shinigami for the Mafia-verse, so it will most likely change in the future.
From what we've already discussed, Echo's probably going to be a very entertaining character. I had a lot of fun with writing those little notes- in fact, with the "Stole the jacket" one, I was going to ask if you see Echo having to be a little thief every once in awhile and only ever when it's nessessary?
Oooooh, yes! I did have in mind that she would at it whenever she thought of her children- whether it would be grieving over her son's death or wondering about what could've happened to her daughter and would definitely just grab onto it as a sense of comfort. Yeah, I think she would be the one they would send out to get information- the info getter for the mafia.
SO GLAD TO HEAR THAT!!

1) Welcome
2)
3) Tony: Change the shirt
Star: Why? It's a shirt?
Tony: I know what you're doing.
Star: What?
Tony: You're inviting that Quill Lord Whatever Guy to come talk you, and to make me go crazy!
Star: ... Is it working?
Tony: *Insert rage mode here*
4) I just love him. He's great. XD
I think that shade of green really works out for him.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooOOOOO CAN'T WAIT!!!
5) Huh... Well.... that is a thing evidently...
Okay then, Shinigami has a tendency to smoke when she left the Cons, but pretty sure that Sharp Edge got her to lay off of it because he doesn't approve of that habit much like he'd disapprove of being an Alcoholic?
I can see her smoking the most, which is probably not saying alot honestly, in the Mafia-verse. Because i'm pretty sure she's not smoking in the poke-verse... But yeah, she'd probably be more liable to smoke when Sharp Edge isn't around. Like maybe when she's in the car or something, but she makes sure to never smoke at their house, otherwise she'd get an earful from Sharp Edge...
7)EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Can't wait to see them!!! I know you're gonna do great!!!!
8) Okay, got it, yeah... he'd probably come in handy.. a lot...
Interesting, can't wait to see what you change.
Kinda figured she would have to resort to petty stealing... i mean, she doesn't have a job, can't get a job, and obviously the orphanage/family thing isn't working out, so... what is she suppose to do? i don't see her trying to steal much, maybe the Jacket was the biggest thing she had stolen, but for the most part she steals food...
Okay good, we agree on everything! This is going to fun!

1.)
3.) Perfect! And behind Tony is Quill in the background giving Star a flirty smirk. XD
4.)
Yeah, it does.
5.) Yeah, I was very surprised that there was actually an equivalent...
Yep, that’s basically it. Wolfheart did make suggestions on how things went with that and I liked it. So, it’s a habit she originally picked up from being with the Cons but never really was a habit until she left the Cons. She would occasionally used it as a way to deal with stress, which would be quite a bit then. Sharp Edge would get her to kick it or lay off when she joins up with him because as you said he wouldn’t approve of such a habit like he would disapprove being an alcoholic. Then after his “death” and everything starting to get to get to her- she ends up falling back into the habit again, maybe even a little more so then before.
Agreed, she would probably smoke the most in the Mafia-verse. Yeah, she’s not smoking at all in the Poke-verse... Mhm, she would probably smoke only if Sharp Edge wasn’t around and it would most likely be when she’s in the car or something, never in their house...
7.) Thanks, hopefully I’ll be able to do it soon.
8.) Yep...
Yeah, she wouldn’t steal much because she knows it’s wrong but it’s really her only option. She’d only steal things she really needs like food or something and the jacket is probably the biggest thing she’s stolen. I can imagine that she’s got some sort of trick when it comes to stealing, so that way she doesn’t get caught.
Can’t wait to see what you come up with and I’m still very excited for the next chapter of the Mafia-verse!

3) !!!! AND HE'S BEHIND TONY WITH A "I'd kiss you even if you weren't Irish!" SIGN! XD
5) Figured it would be a habit gained from her time among the Decepticons, especially if the starting point was the lost of her biological mother, most stresses like that do trigger that kinda habit starting. But yeah, probably was more prevalent when she left the 'Cons, especially if she starting using the versions that messed with her mind with an attempt to forget everything because that's why i kinda expected her to be an alcoholic equivalent...
I can see him trying to make her quit 100%, and kinda fusses with her whenever he did catch her... Though, i can seeYoketron making it a rule to not have things like that at the Dojo, that stuff can mess with a processor in ways that are probably not cosher to his spiritual teachings... I feel like Yoketron would have been ten times worse with the discipline if he ever caught his students smoking or drinking, and he's probably the reason why Shinigami did stop for a long while...
Yeah, she would never smoke around him... It's probably a habit that she wouldn't keep from him, but if he doesn't catch her in the act, he can't really do anything about it...
7)
8) She would steal only when it was necessary, like with food. Anything trivial, though, she would probably refrain from... Yeah, she would have to come up with a few tricks to not get caught...

3.) YES!! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! XD
5.) Yeah, I can definitely see her ocassionally using the versions that messed with her mind in an attempt to forget everything. Hmm, I think that maybe at one point she could've been really close to becoming an alcoholic but then realized that wasn't for her and so she just stuck with the smoking.
There would most definitely be fussing with her whenever he did catch her and yeah, he would try to make her quit 100%. I can see that he would probably be successful with getting her to quit for the most part... Yeah, I can see Yoketron making such a rule and knowing him the disciplining would be harsh- doesn't surprise me at all that Yoketron would probably be the reason why Shinigami stopped for a long while. Though I get a feeling that after she left the fortress, the first time things started getting to her again- the stress, her PTSD, she fell right back into the habit again and still has it even now, in the present...
Yeah, she wouldn't keep the habit from him, but it wouldn't be something that she would do in front of him... Knowing that she has the habit of smoking, Sharp Edge would probably be on the look out for where Shinigami would hide the cigarettes and when/if he finds them, he gets rid of them immediately...
8.) Agreed... Mhm and I don't think she's ever been caught just yet, but she'll always have to watch her back...

KcMangleWolf0587 In reply to Katninjagirl96 [2018-03-12 21:31:41 +0000 UTC]
5.) Mhm, sometimes it's just to much and she just wants to forget about it all... and on worse days I wouldn't be surprise if she occasionally added some high grade to the mix...
That sounds about right, he would've been so close to getting her to stop but went backwards once she lost him and I agree, Yoketron would've been the one to finish what Sharp Edge started in getting her to quit. The reason why she left was mainly because she had finished the rest of her cyber-ninja training, though she would've stayed for a little longer but she was assigned to go do something, one thing lead to another and she somehow ended up on Optimus's team- that part is still a work in progress but it's what I have so far. Anyways, yeah, once she left the Fortress for good she allowed herself to fall right back into the habit, though she doesn't use the mind altering ones as much as she used to- she probably only uses those on really bad days and her go-to is now the ones that just relax her without messing with her processor...
Yeah, he probably does but as you said Shinigami would've caught onto that and thus hiding her stash in more sneaky places... By the way, do you think that her Shini's smoking habit in the Mafia AU started after she was kicked of the police force or do you think she already had that habit even while she was still on the force?
8.) True. XD

Katninjagirl96 In reply to KcMangleWolf0587 [2018-03-15 01:22:04 +0000 UTC]
Yeah... i can see that...
So she'd probably do it for the first few months until Yoketron really got on her aft about it. that and i can see Prowl influencing that as well... but yeah, the moment she's out of the place, i wouldn't put it past her to start again... and she probably would have stopped once more, if just a little bit, once they were on Earth because Prowl would tell her not to do it that much, especially around the girls...
OOOOO... that's interesting, i can see it... though i feel like she would have had the habit before or during her time at the station?

KcMangleWolf0587 In reply to Katninjagirl96 [2018-03-15 17:47:02 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, that’s probably how it went- she didn’t stop until Yoketron really got on her about it and I agree, I can see Prowl influencing that as well... Mhm, it’s just a habit that she allows herself to get deeper into and even if she stops for awhile, sooner or later she’s going to start again... She probably has slowed down with it once they were on Earth though I don’t think she’d really care when it comes to Prowl telling her to stop or to not do it that much. However, she wouldn’t do it around the girls like he’d ask her not to do. Okay- now I got the image in my head of one of the girls seeing/catching Shinigami smoking and they’re just like “Stop it! You put that cancer stick away!”
Hmm...if she already had the habit while she was at the station then I can see already had the habit before her time at the station.

Katninjagirl96 In reply to KcMangleWolf0587 [2018-03-18 19:28:30 +0000 UTC]
I feel like this is something she's been struggling with on and off for awhile... and usually she starts right back up again when something bad happens...
But yeah, i doubt she'd do it around the girls. Melody and Chess would definitely be the "CANCER STICKS ARE BAD!" While Sari would calmly remind her that things like that are very careless and stupid to use. Kat would probably be the only one who's like: "I doubt we'd die from their version of second hand smoke so, you know... if she wants to do it, what's it gonna hurt?"
I mean, i doubt very seriously that the Cybertronian equivalent of smoking is as dangerous as what we humans can smoke. Yeah, there are some massive psyco-altering varieties for them, but for the most part i don't see it really harming them in the same way humans do. I mean, they're basically vaping energon more than likely...
Sounds good.

KcMangleWolf0587 In reply to Katninjagirl96 [2018-03-19 04:23:00 +0000 UTC]
Agreed, I think that pretty much sums up her situation with that...
Yeah, she wouldn’t do it around the girls... I can see that and I most certainly agree with Kat- it’s probably very unlikely that the Cybertronian equivalent of smoking can harm them.
Mhm, I don’t see it being truly dangerous in anyway- the only way I can see that it’d be a threat is if one were to get very obsessed with the mind altering varieties, but that’s pretty much it...

Katninjagirl96 In reply to KcMangleWolf0587 [2018-03-22 03:18:33 +0000 UTC]
Yeah...
Like, i don't see how that could really... unless it was tainted with something that would kill them on contact, but just plain energon? As long as Chess or Melody ingest it, i think we're okay, and even then i don't think its 100% poison to humans to consume energon. They probably get sick to their stomachs for awhile, but overall, i doubt they would get killed because of it... The mind altering ones would be the bigger issue, but like i said, if its regular energon, i doubt there's much change. It's still energon whether they drinking or vape it...

KcMangleWolf0587 In reply to Katninjagirl96 [2018-03-22 05:28:02 +0000 UTC]
Agreed, I don't think that it would be lethal to Melody or Chess- unless they ingest it, nothing would happen to them and even if they do ingest it, like you said, they would probably just get sick for awhile... Yeah, the mind altering ones would be the one that an issue but there wouldn't be really any problems if it's regular energon...

Katninjagirl96 In reply to KcMangleWolf0587 [2018-03-25 16:43:41 +0000 UTC]
About the only time we get any human-energon interaction is when Raf and Bumblebee got shot with Dark Energon, but that was Dark Energon which is toxic even to the bots, Megatron is the only one with an immunity, and that's not a good comparison because of it. So yeah, i really doubt it would do much of anything unless its ingested.
yeah, because i have no doubt in mind that the mind altering ones are just so chemically different than regular energon that if it messes up the bot taking it, it's definitely hazardous to other lifeforms...

KcMangleWolf0587 In reply to Katninjagirl96 [2018-03-25 21:20:57 +0000 UTC]
Yeah that’s true- other than seeing Raf and Bumblebee getting hit with dark energon, there’s nothing really that has to do with human/energon interaction. On top of the fact it was dark energon and like you said that’s toxic to both bots (except Megatron) and humans. It’s not like it was normal energon and so no one can really say how a human would react to it. Though I don’t think anything would happen to a human unless, like you said, they ingested it.
Yeah, if the mind altering ones are chemically different from regular energon, it would be a hazard...

There hasn't been much, except for that probably... so yeah, as long as it's not Dark Energon, i don't think there would be devastating results...
Definitely...

Wolfheart343 [2018-03-05 05:34:47 +0000 UTC]
Oh my gosh!!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!
1) OOOooooh, the four optics definitely suit her These just give her a bit more....flare...you know? I think the four optics are a very interesting change. And I love the new optic colour! I think the purple goes nicely with the rest of her colours.
2) I wasn't expecting Echo to get a change, but I love the new design! Oh no, not at all. I don't mind that you based it off that drawing. I only drew her how I thought she would fit best in my style, after all. I like the colour changes too. The darker purple does make more sense now that you mention it, and the purple-blue optic colour fits her pretty darn well.
3) The shirt is definitely a fitting touch. I spent a good few minutes giggling at that. XD The small freckles definitely suit her.
4) I am loving this design!!!! Oooh, yeah, I think the knight-look will be a nice touch. It's already looking good here. But if you're looking for more knight motifs to add, I would suggest studying some helmets and other pieces of armor implementing some of the designs from those? I think he looks amazing here, but just in case you wanted to add a little extra.
5) OOoooh! Hmm...I think this would definitely be an interesting trait to give her. It's not often I see OCs with any sort of addiction or bad habit like this, so I think it might be an interesting trait for her to have and that there's a lot than can be done with that story-wise. Maybe she picked up the habit from being with the 'cons and then on her own like you said and occasionally used it as a way to deal with stress? I could also see Sharp Edge getting her to kick it when she joins up with him, but maybe after his death after everything starts getting to her and she's on her own again, she ends up falling back into the habit?
6) Awww, she is just a little cutie! A hopeless romantic? That is just adorable! Yes! I'm all for it!
7) Oh my gosh!!!!!! They turned out amazing!!! Especially Tulip!!! I love how you drew her!!!!
8) OOooooh, lovely designs!!!! I like the little notes you put beside them too. "Stole the jacket", "Mama Tiger". XD OOOooh, Echo's coming into the Mafia AU? I can't wait!!! I won't ask, but I have a feeling it's gonna be good. XD I really like their designs. I think they turned out really well! Shinigami and Blaststrike are my favourite.
These all turned out terrific! And I gotta say, love the little Hamilton reference at the end.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
1.) Yes, they really do and I'm very glad I decided to see how they look before making a final decision on them. Agreed, I love the new optic color as well, the shade of purple is very nice and fits her better than her original optic color.
2.) Thank you! I'm much more satisfied with how she looks now. Okay, phew- that was the only thing I was really worried about. Yeah, a darker purple makes more sense- that and it fits her better. Same goes for the optics, the purple-blue looks better on her.
3.) I figured it would've been a nice little touch. I have a few shirts that have Irish things like that and that's where I got the idea to add that in. Speaking of which- I have this shirt (rextees.com/pictures/2018/01/i… ) and I want to do something with the words with Star because I think that would be funny. Yeah, they do fit her and I"m happy I added them to her design.
4.) THANK YOU! Yeah, a knight theme should fit him very well. I've been looking at different kinds of knights and the different kinds of armor and have already got more ideas for Sharp Edge's design.
5.) I think it would to, though the only problem is how would the cybertronian equivalent of smoking even be? That's my main reason for not giving her that trait in the first place, but I do like for her so I'll see if I can find anything or see if I'll have to make something up or just put the idea back in the scraps. Now, Katninjagirl did say that she could see the human version of Shinigami smoking, which I agree with- so I will be going with that. Though if I do end up with also her normal, cybertronian self smoking- I really do like your suggestions with you made for it for story-wise purposes, so I'll definitely keep those at hand.
6.) Yup, I think being a hopeless romantic would fit her very well.
7.) Thank you so much! I'm very happy you like how Tulip came out.
8.) Thanks. Yeah, I had quite a bit of fun writing those small notes. "Stole the jacket" is probably my favorite one because it makes me giggle. Yep, she is going to be in the Mafia AU. I won't spoil anything, but I think she'll be quite the character in the Mafia-verse. Blaststike is my favorite as well, not quite satisfied with how Shinigami came out those, so her Mafia AU design may change a bit in the future.
Thanks! I know, I couldn't help myself after seeing that I had wrote "satisfied" quite a few times.

1) Yeah, I find it's always best to do a test drawing just to see. And hot dang did this one turn out amazing. XD
2) Yeah, I think the new changes suit her quite well.
3) That would be hilarious!!!!
4) Oooooh, can't wait to see what you come up with when he's done then!
5) Hmmm, yeah, never thought of that....hmm....I don't know if there even is an equivalent...there is one for drinking, obviously, but I can't think of anything that would translate to smoking....especially because Cybertronians don't have lungs...Yeah, her human form smoking is a good idea. I could see that. At least she'd be able to have that trait somehow....hmm...I'll see if I can find anything for you, but I can't say I've ever heard something that could translate to smoking for Cybertronians...

7) She turned out great!
8) Yeah. Oh my gosh I can't wait!!! I can already feel she's gonna be awesome. XD Yeah, Blaststrike's design fits him very well. Makes him look very classy.

5.) Who would've thought that there was actually a cybertronian equivalent to smoking. You haven't seen Transformers That Last Knight? Well, it's a pretty good movie and even though I'm not the biggest fan of the bayverse Transformers, The Last Knight is my 2nd favorite out of all of them.
